After more than 50 years, DC Streetcar is back to provide District residents and visitors another transportation option designed to connect our District neighborhoods. Checkout our FAQs for quick answers and stay informed with Resources such as videos, studies and future plans.

The existing H/Benning Line is just the first segment of the DC Streetcar system. Mayor Muriel Bowser has committed to expanding the H/Benning line east (Benning Extension) and west (Union Station to Georgetown). These pages contain planning and public involvement information for both those lines, including other lines that have been studied.

Educator Toolkit

Your Guide to Streetcar Safety

The Educator Toolkit provides teachers, youth group leaders and parents with purposeful and engaging resources to teach students how to make safe decisions when interacting with DC Streetcar. The lesson plans, designed for grades K-12, were created by curriculum specialists Young Minds Inspired (YMI) and brought to you through a collaboration with Operation Lifesaver, Inc. (OLI).

Join us in our efforts to keep students safe by using these materials in your classrooms and in your homes. The components of the Educator Toolkit are available for download here and on the YMI website.

Please download and make copies of all the components to share with fellow teachers and students.
